      proposition for the approval of such local law shall be submitted  at  a
      special  election  of such village to be held not less than ten nor more

      is to be held, the proposition for the approval of such local law  shall
      be  submitted  at  the said general village election. A special election
      hereunder shall be noticed, conducted, canvassed and otherwise  held  in
      the same manner as provided in article nine of this chapter.
